🔦 Streamlight 88083 ProTac 2L-X USB 500 Lumens (Renewed) - Rechargeable Flashlight with USB Battery, Cord, Holster, and Box Review

Pros - light, durable, inexpensive, bright, programmable, clip-on, rechargeable cordless flashlight (although worth it) Pros: light (for me), very handy (me carry in my pocket, attaches to the inside of my pocket with a great clip), super bright at 500 lumens, dual controls help save battery, the USB rechargeable battery is great (still charges all the time, I've had it for at least a year) , I like the USB rechargeable battery better than magnetic batteries and chargers. It's a simple system…

I am an industrial mechanic and my work wears out my tools. One of my most used tools is my flashlight. I've had a lot of small tactical LED lights and they would either start flickering, stop using some of their modes, or die completely. I'm happy to report that mine hasn't done either of those things and is still working just as it did the day it was removed from the box. I've dropped it many times from 12ft ladders, scissor lifts and whatnot. A few months after purchasing this job I was…

I ordered the 2L-X USB on the recommendation of a very experienced safety expert and John Lovell of the Society of Warrior Poets - neither disappointed me. The Pro-Tac is literally flashy, yet small and light enough for a security officer to carry around with very little attention in everyday gear. The included holster as well as the included pocket clip give you many options on how best to carry it. The USB battery has already almost paid for itself instead of having to buy additional lithium…

I really liked this light until it stopped working. It's really bright, has a solid build and is very versatile in a variety of modes. I've always used 18650 batteries and the battery life has been great. But only today, a year and three months after receiving it, the problems started. I assume it's the toggle, which seems to be a fairly common problem on streamlights. If it is shaken or hit lightly while it is on, it will turn off. Turning it off and back on sometimes doesn't work. In this…
